Almost there...

This weekend we spent most of the time getting things ready for our big trip! We packed on Friday night (for the most part). We are still waiting on some donations, so the packing is totally complete, but it is pretty darn close.
Dan spent Saturday at work, so I spent the day cleaning the house! It seems like it is almost never clean all at the same time. Well, this weekend I took care of most of that. Still need to sweep and mop, but it's so close... Yesterday was beautiful. It's hard to believe it's mid January in Southwest Kansas. We started out by having lunch at my aunt Rhonda's after church. It's fun to do and we got to say our 'good byes' to my cousin Michelle who is going to spend a semester in England! We are going to miss her, but she will have the time of her life! Then, we went home and Dan spent the day outside in the yard and I finished organizing the kitchen cabinets to fit new baby stuff! It was more fun than it sounds. Last night we decided to dive into a project I've been wanting to do for a while. We did a 'family' collage. We obviously don't have current pictures of everyone yet, but my guess would be that in the next few weeks we will and the wall will be done!
It was a fun and tiring weekend. We are extremely excited to get going and get our little boy, but really trying to enjoy our last few days at home just the two of us. I will post tomorrow morning our flight information for anyone who is wanting to know, so, stay tuned! T
